KIM JONG IL RISES TO THE CHALLENGE: I challenge: “Sounds like a fizzle. I dare Kim Jong Il to test another one!”

What comes next? “U.S spy satellites have detected ‘suspicious vehicle movements’ that could be preparations for another test near the site where North Korea conducted its first underground nuclear explosion test on Oct. 9, ABC News said, quoting unidentified U.S. officials.”

Let me stress that it will take several successful test explosions to convince me that North Korea really has workable nukes. Say six or eight. Anything less could be a fluke.
